Chapter 311 You Better Give Me an Answer
Yvonne's assistant hesitated for a while before saying, "We came in last and got eliminated."Yvonne's gaze darkened. "Impossible!"She'd personally edited Nicole and her team's design. Yvonne knew that in this competition round, from final 10 to final 5, no matter what, they should come in third! How could they come in tenth?"Wait for me right there. I'll come over now!" Yvonne hung up and quickly left the airport, driving to the competition venue.When she reached there, her assistant was waiting for her outside. She quickly went up to her, saying, "Ms. Miller, quickly go have a look. Nicole and the others aren't happy with the result, so they are in an argument with the organizers now!"Yvonne immediately strode into the venue when she heard that, with her assistant at her heels. The moment she entered, she heard Nicole's choked-up voice. "Open your eyes and have a look! How is our design not as good as the top five? You're being unfair! Did you make a deal behind everyone's b
Chapter 312 Could It Be Xavier Again?
Half an hour later, Yvonne came out from backstage. Nicole and the rest immediately swarmed to her. "Ms. Miller, what happened?"Looking at their hopeful gazes, Yvonne's heart sank. However, that man didn't seem like he'd been lying. The person who'd influenced the results of the competition was very likely not here. She couldn't give them an answer.When she saw Yvonne's lack of response, the light in Nicole's eyes went out. She lowered her head helplessly. "If even Ms. Miller can't handle it, we'll just have to give up …""Why would this happen? Who's behind this?""We worked late for the past two weeks just for this competition. How could we lose just like that?"The team members complained.Yvonne took a deep breath and said, "Your efforts won't go to waste. I really like the design this time. We can use this as the foundation and work on it for our new series for the season." This decision did indeed comfort them. As fresh graduates, getting their designs chosen for the main
Chapter 313 I Need a Step-Grandmother After All!
When he heard what Xavier said, Arthur's expression turned ugly. "Are you trying to stand up for her?""I'm only asking you if all the things you've taught me all these years—are any of them true?" Xavier enunciated every word. "You've been in this industry for so long. You always stick to the rules. Why did you interfere with a competition this time?""Even if I didn't interfere with the competition, those brats in Miller Jewels wouldn't win anyway! I'm only helping them face reality sooner."Arthur continued, saying, "You, on the contrary. You should pay attention to your own status. Your marriage with Kayla has been set. The entire Northerna City knows that you two are getting married soon, yet you're here standing up for another woman. You can't even do a simple thing like not getting involved in other people's affairs."Arthur sneered and said domineeringly, "It looks like my decision to kick Yvonne out of the competition was correct. I don't believe you'll be able to behave y
Chapter 314 Who Told You That?
Xavier lazily leaned back on the couch. "Miller Jewels joined a jewelry competition. Grandpa used his connections and did something behind the scenes to have them eliminated.""Oh?" Caleb's interest was piqued. "Why did he do that?""He looks down on Yvonne." Xavier smiled bitterly. "He's definitely going to regret it a lot in the future."No matter how hard Caleb tried to pry, Xavier said nothing anymore. The latter soon hugged the empty beer bottles and fell asleep on the couch.Caleb spent a huge effort getting Xavier into the room. He stood by the side of the bed and placed his hands on his hips, panting. "He might look skinny, but who knew he was so heavy?"When all was quiet, he remembered what Xavier had said to him and thought that perhaps Yvonne should know about it too.…The next day, Caleb left Xavier at home and headed to Miller Tower. Once he told them who he was, Yvonne's assistant came to greet him and told him that Yvonne was still in a meeting. She led Caleb to
Chapter 315 A Pretty Boy-Man
"I think someone called Sarah Thompson?" Caleb hadn't paid much attention to her name, so he was a little doubtful about it.Yvonne immediately realized that it was a senior staff member. She'd joined the competition with Nicole and the rest, so Yvonne still remembered her. Since she was a senior staff member, it was even more important that she wasn't let off the hook for making such a careless mistake. Yvonne told her assistant to have Sarah come over.Soon, Yvonne's assistant arrived with Sarah. Sarah saw Caleb, and her eyes immediately sparkled. "You were looking for me?""I was looking for you," Yvonne said with a slightly darkened expression. "Do you know who he is?""He …" Sarah secretly gulped and said softly, "He said his name was Michael, and he's here looking for a friend." Seeing Caleb sitting there, Sarah slowly realized that the friend he'd mentioned was Yvonne. Yvonne was so furious that she laughed. "You don't even know his real name, yet you already told him th
Chapter 316 This Collaboration Must Succeed
At night, Yvonne returned to Miller Villa.Andy raised his phone at her and smiled at her. "Howard, you see?"Yvonne noticed a familiar face on his phone was smiling at her. She smiled and greeted him. "Hi, Howard.""Ms. Y!" Howard exclaimed. "So, it's really your instructions. I thought Andy was pulling my leg."Howard had received a message from Andy telling him to stop collaborating with Robinson Jewels. Robinson Jewels was a big client of the A112 mine. Both parties had almost settled on a deal. Stopping at that moment didn't seem like what Ms. Y would do."Ms. Y, the Robinsons want the entire green agate mine. They offered a high price. If we were to—""I know," Yvonne said casually, "I've seen the gems from that mine—excellent color, nearly flawless. No one would be able to find another mine like that. Which is why I'm increasing the price. The Robinsons can buy it if they want. If not, they can just leave. There are many queuing up for this.""Increasing the price at the
Chapter 317 We’ll Have to Rely on You in the Future
Xavier returned home to pack. When he entered, he saw his grandfather and the Joneses sitting in the living area out of the corner of his eye.He furrowed his brows and headed upstairs directly without even looking at them properly.Arthur was instantly furious. He rebuked, "Are you blind or deaf? Don't you know how to greet us?" However, Xavier didn't stop in his tracks. "Xavier Robinson! You're getting bold! Are you not even listening to me anymore?" Arthur was angry and humiliated. He was about to go and teach Xavier a lesson in front of the Jones family.Kayla immediately pulled Arthur back. "Grandfather, something must have happened at the office. Xavier must be dealing with it; if not, he wouldn't have come home at this hour.""Stop talking on his behalf. He's always been a slacker. He wouldn't care about work! He is just trying to piss me off!" Arthur glared upstairs angrily before turning to look at the Jones family. "I'm sorry you all had to witness that. I have no idea wh
Chapter 318 Another Step Forward
That night, Kayla's collaboration with Jones Jewels was officially announced. Jones Jewels would be releasing all the designs Kayla had done for the competition. Once the news was announced, it became an instant sensation on the internet, with many people commenting on it. It was going to be a hit!When Andy saw the news, he immediately went to look for Yvonne. "Yvonne, it's exactly as you'd predicted!"Yvonne merely took one glance. "Hmm.""This is another step forward in your plan. Why aren't you reacting?" Andy was curious, and his gaze landed on Yvonne's computer screen. He was stunned. "This is the item that you'll be responsible for this time?"There was only one complete set of the Victorian, green-glazed figurines of the Eight Saints in the entire world. Many antique collectors thought that the figurines had been scattered around the world. Collecting them all was like finding a needle in a haystack, yet Emerald Group had managed to do it. The figurines would be the final i
